Lock You In My Heart Chapter 498
Lock You In My Heart
Gabrielle had mixed feelings on the way back to their villa.
She felt nervous and guilty when she thought of Rose and Doctor Maniacâs injuries.
But when she remembered Doctor Maniac saying he would go back to Antawood with them, her heart soared. It sparked hope for them, and mostly, for Sloane. Even if he wouldnât be able to cure Sloane in the end, Gabrielle would be glad to simply try.
âYou look gloomy. Whatâs wrong?â Westley held her in his arms.
Westley somehow understood why Gabrielle felt depressed. She blamed herself for what happened to Rose and Doctor Maniac.
âIâm fine... just feeling a little sad. They got in trouble because of me.â Gabrielle bit her lip tight.
âYou didnât want this to happen. Nobody would have thought it would happen. Theyâre going to be fine, I promise.â Westley laid her head on his shoulder.
He never imagined Rose and Doctor Maniac would get hurt.
They were so loyal to Bain, after all. No one expected they would choose to leave the forest. If the two of them wanted to get out after the confrontation between Bain and the Campbell Family, Westley would have gotten them out of there.
But that night, they were carried back by someone from the Campbell Family, drenched in blood.
Doctor Maniac later told him everything that had happened. The two of them betrayed Bain and couldnât return to the forest anymore.
So, he helped them without hesitation.
If they didnât want to leave Bangkok, Westley would still do everything in his power to help them. The only problem was Bain. He wouldnât let them off the hook so easily.
The best option was for them to go to Antawood together. Bain and his men wouldnât be able to do much if they left Thailand.
âI know, Westley. But I canât stop worrying... will they come to Antawood with us?â Visibly anxious and restless, Gabrielle fiddled with Westleyâs fingers.
âLetâs hope they will.â
âIf they come back home with us, we will do our best to help them.â Gabrielle buried her face on Westleyâs chest.
There was not much she could do for Rose and Doctor Maniac.
She wanted to make up for everything, and now she wouldnât waste any chances.
âI know, sweetheart. Weâll do whatever it takes. Does that make you feel better?â Westley rubbed her head gently.
âYes, thanks to you. I was thinking about Sloane... with Doctor Maniac treating her, I think sheâll be able to recover from her coma this time.â Gabrielle had faith in Doctor Maniacâs skills.
She believed he would be the one to help cure Sloane.
âDoctor Maniac is a skilled practitioner and Sloane is strong, right? Sheâll be able to overcome this. She will wake up soon.â
Westley gave her a smile.
Even though nothingâs promised, hearing Westleyâs words was enough for Gabrielle to feel better.
âSloane is such a kind-hearted girl. She was always so bright and joyful, and never did anything to hurt other people. Itâs unfair for her to suffer this much...â Gabrielleâs heart ached for her friend. She m issed her so much.
They had known each other for a long time and Sloane had been of great help to her. Sloane wasnât just her best friend, she was also her family.
âAll the more reason you should take care of yourself so we can go back to Antawood soon,â Westley said, running his fingers through her hair.
Gabrielle nodded obediently. âIâll take good care of myself, I promise.â
âThatâs right. You donât have to worry about anything else because Iâll take care of everything. Donât think too much now, save your energy for the days ahead.â Westley kissed the top of her head.
âIâm very happy to have you by my side, Westley. I can always count on you for everything. You always ease my worries.â
Gabrielle spoke softly, making Westley blush.
âIâm your husband. Iâll always be there for you. Giving you support and happiness is the only thing that matters to me. If solving your problems will make you happy, then Iâll help in any way I can,â Westley sincerely said and his words warmed Gabrielleâs heart.
He always knew what to say.
âThank you, Westley. Iâll call you every time Iâm at a pinch,â Gabrielle joked.
âYes, you just need to be happy Mrs. Morris.â Westley wanted to shoulder all her troubles.
This was his sweet burden.
Fortunately, this trip had not ruined their relationship. They chose to stick together and their feelings for one another were stronger than ever.
âBy the way, would you happen to know where Nellie is?â The woman suddenly crossed Gabrielleâs mind.
âShe is still in Bangkok and sheâs pregnant.â Westley learned everything he needed to know about Nellie.
Westley had nothing to hide anymore.
He would answer all of Gabrielleâs questions.
âWhy donât you let her go back to the Collins family now? Sheâs pregnant and all alone... Anyway, Bryce has returned to Antawood. Do you think they can still be together?â Gabrielle didnât want to stick her nose in their affairs.
But everything that had happened was because of them, so Gabrielle wanted to set things right.
âItâs none of my business, I couldnât care less,â Westley answered coldly.
From what he heard about the Collins family, they wouldnât allow Nellie to marry Bryce.
The Collins family didnât think the Jones family was good enough, so they hoped Nellie would marry into a wealthier household that could help them with their company and everything else.
Nellie marrying Bryce wouldnât be of help to the Collins family.
However, Westley didnât tell Gabrielle about this. He was afraid she would be worried.
âRight... itâs not our problem.â Gabrielle sighed. She guessed it was impossible for Bryce to marry Nellie because the Collins family wouldnât agree.
Although they were not as wealthy as the Morris family, they were still richer than the Jones family. Of course, they would want their daughter to marry into a more powerful household.
Nellie was supposed to marry Westley, but Bryce stepped into the picture. There was a huge difference.
